Alabaster DePlume

DePlume doesn’t so much take the stage as fold himself into it, like ink bleeding into water. He moves through music, poetry, and comedic storytelling with the ease of someone who is constantly reshaping the boundaries between art and life.

It’s a polished and spirited revival, just one that plays it a little too safe. A rootin’-tootin’ crowd-pleaser. But, heck, I was hoping for a wilder ride through Deadwood.

Synth East Live’s most anticipated event hit Norwich with a festival of synths, modular music, and a Q&A with John Foxx from Ultravox. But the real highlight was the night’s headliners: Magical Molten Modular Synth Adventure, Loula Yorke, and Seefeel.
